Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The "improvement"Week 3 and Week 6

It was rated by the investigator (KBA) based on her clinical judgement (0=some worsening, 1=no improvement, 2=some improvement, 3=moderate improvement, 4=much improvement). If there was a moderate to much improvement at any point, the case was rated as "improved"; and "not improved" if the score was little worsening, no improvement, or some improvement.

The mean change in Misophonia Total Score (MTS)Week 0 and Week 6

The difference between MTS Week 0 and MTS Week 6 was calculated, divided by MTS Week 0, and multiplied by 100, to elicit the percent change in MTS between Week 0 and Week 6.
